Old Town Streetscape and Main Renewal

The Old Town Streetscape and Main Renewal project, managed by the Alameda County Water District, involves the replacement of approximately 2,500 feet of pipe within existing public streets. Located on Thornton Avenue between Ash Street and Cherry Street in Newark, California, the scope of work includes the replacement of water service laterals and appurtenances. The project is classified under NAICS code 237110 and is overseen by Project Engineer Bao Nguyen. The project is declared exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under Sections 15301 to 15304 and Statutory exemption 21080.21(k). These exemptions apply because the work involves minor alterations to existing topography and the reconstruction of existing facilities on the same site without expanding the facility's use. The project is determined to have no significant environmental impacts, unusual circumstances, or cumulative impacts on the surrounding environment.
